Swim is going to run the first of many buffered performic reactions (per Labtop's writeup). After this reaction, the glycol will be stored for later use.
I understand that before storage, it is important to wash the glycol to remove all acid.
Swim plans on washing the glycol with 5% sodium bicarb, then water.
Should this be done before or after boiling away DCM?
Any answers or comments are greatly appreciated.

Wash it before you distill off the dcm.
